Eating

Training? What training…? Seriously, all I did this past holiday weekend...was eat. And I don't mean..."eat" as in to gain nutrients to stay alive and healthy...I mean, "eat" like there is no tomorrow and all the food put in front of me is freakin' gourmet cuisine. Do I feel bad about how much I ate this weekend, you ask. Heck no. Not even one tiny bit. I had a killer awesome weekend and didn’t give one thought to my training regime (that may come back and bite me in the butt later this week…but fuck it).

Saturday I went cherry picking for the first time. We drove up to Brentwood and packed a picnic lunch. We picked and ate cherries all morning and afternoon. When we got tired and bored of the cherries, we all whooped out our bbq lunches, popped open some drinks...and camped amongst the cherry trees. It was definitely very relaxing and fun times. And seriously, eating cherries right off the trees is how you do it. The cherries were amazingly sweet. After I got to picking and realized that I didn't know what I was going to do with a buttload of cherries, I scaled back my bucket and only spent $30 dollars vs. the $50 that I was thinking about throwing down. Which is probably a good move since I’ve been handing out cherries to everyone I know. Haha. As for Saturday night, we hung out and enjoyed some Korean BBQ ribs and sang some karaoke (I would post some pictures and videos, but I was told that I would be hunted down and shot...so the photos and videos will remain private). Hehe. The food was solid...but the entertainment was priceless. Saturday late night, we caught the last showing of Hangover 2 (my review will be posted tomorrow) and had some fun laughs. Sunday was family day. I spent the day in Sacramento hanging with my super cool cousins. As always, we had a good 'ole fun time. But again, I spent practically all day eating. Monday was picnic day...which means...more eating. Sure, there were tennis courts, a volleyball net and an ultimate frisbee game going on...but the main attraction was the food. Oh yeah, and the spicy hot wings eating contest. I don't know whose bright idea was it to have a wing eating contest (there were sauces from 0 - 7 in spiciness and my mouth started burning at 4), but it was crazy to have to eat 10 spicy ass chicken wings in 3 minutes. I would post pictures, but seeing throw up pictures are not pretty...and I was also told to keep those pictures private too. Shesh.

So overall, I had a great weekend. I got to hang out with all my people, I got to kick back and relax and I got to eat to my stomach’s content…what more could I ask for? Oh yeah…a longer weekend. :-)
